So with just 40mins easy with a few hills on the cards, I jogged over to The Running Centre in Edgecliff and settled on a pair of Saucony Fastwitch's as a racing flat. Haven't raced in anything but my Mizuno Wave Rider's - including 5000m on the track - for the past 2 years. But in a fit of desperation and clutching at straws for a boost in performance at JPMorgan next week, I decided a lightweight flat was the way forward. There's a teeny bit of science here in that I seem to run my reps quicker barefoot.
They felt great, so bought them and ran back to the office. Stopped at the Domain and did 4 x 80m hill. First one was shocking. Last one felt great. I guessing Tiger put them in to activate the glutes. If so, it worked.
